I’m a clinical psychologist licensed as a Health Care Provider in Massachusetts.

I’m also a psychoanalyst, a member of the Boston Psychoanalytic Society and Institute and a Clinical Instructor in Psychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and at the Harvard Medical School.

Within the field of psychology, I have a special interest in Anxiety, with a particular focus on individual performance anxiety as it affects work, relationships, and self-esteem. Public figures do battle with anxiety under the watchful gaze of the public. But many others suffer from the watchful gaze of their own internal audience, who can be ruthlessly and relentlessly critical.
